4.6. ASSEMBLE TWO-LINE PLATFORM RAILS AND PICKETED GUARDS
4.6.1. Two-line rails and picketed guards are provided in pairs when ordered with a platform.
Two-line rails can be converted to picketed guards in the field, see ‘CONVERT TWO-LINE
PLATFORM HANDRAILS TO PICKETED GUARDS’ section.
Regardless of handrail/guard styles, assemble handrail/guard bolts loosely (do
not fully tighten) until all handrails/guards have been installed on the ramp and
or platform.
4.6.2. For two-line rails, pre-assemble the top rail by inserting a 5/16”-18 x 1” long hex
bolt through a 5/16” flat washer, the uppermost hole in the platform angle post
(angle post) and into the 5/16”-18 round threaded inserts in the top rail.
The rounded end (FIG. 4.9) of the post is the upper end.
4.6.3. Pre-assemble the barrier and mid rail by inserting 5/16”-18 x 1” long hex bolts
through 5/16” flat washers (for the mid rail only, do not use washers on the
lowermost holes), the platform angle post and into the 5/16”-18 square threaded
inserts in the barrier and mid rail (FIG. 4.9). Assemble both platform angle posts in
the same manner.
